‘N Sync may have stolen the show during last night’s Video Music Awards, but it’s Miley Cyrus’ teddy-clad, tongue-wagging, twerked-out performance of “We Can’t Stop” that seems to have generated the most buzz (and in some cases, outrage).

It’s not exactly surprising to see a pop star give a provocative performance, in fact, often it’s expected and even embraced. So, why is Miley (who was joined on-stage by “Blurred Lines” singing Robin Thicke) getting so much heat? From fans on social media, to Rihanna, and One Direction, everyone seems to have an opinion about the former Hannah Montana star. In a poll conducted on PeoplesChoice.com, nearly 70 percent of fans said they didn’t like Miley’s performance and it was out of control.

So, you tell us. Why did or didn’t you like it? Do you think Miley is being judged too harshly?

I am really impressed along with your writing talents as neatly
as with the structure in your blog. Is this a paid subject matter or did you modify it your
self? Anyway stay up the excellent quality writing, it is rare
to peer a nice weblog like this one these days..

Miley has claimed in one way or another, so many times that the world hasn’t accepted the fact that she’s grown up; but for someone who wants so badly to show us how much of a big girl she is now, she sure has a very childish way of showing it. There’s no excuse, she is not the only former Disney superstar that’s had to breakaway from their childish roles but somehow Selena Gomez/Demi Lovato have managed to do so in a more tactful manner. And it’s not just the fact that it was Miley doing a sexed up performance… if any other superstar were up there, I’d be just as disappointed: She was off key, her costume was not flattering on her at all, and if the thing was choreographed god forbid we ever find out who was responsible for it. Overall its just disappointing to see someone with this much power, influence and even talent waste everything.

I feel that her performance was just terrible. She sounded terrible, and her “dancing” looked like she was an amateur and/or just poorly planned. Honestly, I think the thing that was the most awkward was the fact that her tongue was constantly hanging out of her mouth. Seriously?!?! Are you a panting dog or what Miley?

The problem is she knows she has younger fans and she still does a performance like this. Little kids expect her to be a role model for them (Like: Selena Gomez/Demi Lovato), not some trashy whore who twerks against a married man on stage. I think that it’s ok to change and I know that she wants to let go of the Hannah Montana image. I am not asking for her to keep the Hannah Montana image. On the other-hand, I am asking her to grow up and act like the adult that she says that she wants to be seen as. What she did on stage at the VMA’s is by far not acting like the adult she claims she wants to be seen as. Showing the world that you know about sex, and that you have performed the acts does not make you an adult. Respecting yourself and others, show that you are an adult. Knowing that sometimes showing less, is far more inticing, sexy & attractive. You can be professional, adult and sexy without going the route of slutty and whoreish. Miley Cyrus needs to find the professional, adult and sexy side before she destroys her career.

Thank God I don’t have any daughters cause I’d be angry if they picked Miley Cyrus as a role model. I love how sweet Britney Spears and Christina Anguilla are compared to her now these 2 are great role models now but back in the past they weren’t. Really Miley I know your a grown-up now but leave those childhood antics in the past like they belong and Robin Thicke I lost all respect for you playing along with her sickness.

The problem is she knows she has younger fans and she still does a performance like that. Little kids expect her to be a role model for them (Like Demi Lovato), not some trashy whore who twerks against a married man on stage.

i think that it’s ok to change and i think she whants to let go of the hannah montana image.although i don’t suporte what shes doing. going all hard and crazy thats just not original anymore. pepole have so much hate on her because they dont think that shes being her. cuz going from that nice an sweet girl ”im not saying that her hair cut has to do something with it” but going from a ”normal person” to a total diferent person in weeks- thats whats bothering me. and whanting to have more attention and have a bigger ”scandal” than britany and madonna when they kissed… thats not cool.
p.s. sorry about the mistakes in writing…

well, this was the first thing that I’ve got in mind. why her? she’s really not the one , not the first and deff won’t be the last. I don’t care about her attitude, it’s up to her. Hannah was the character, so why everobody keep talking about it, please…

The whole point of the outrage is that people don’t like the “new” Miley. It really does seem that she has exhausted all she has, and is desperately looking for ways in which she can still make money; she’s only in her twenties… It just makes me sad to watch this transformation taking place; how many here, who know Miley Cyrus as a goodie goodie Miley Stewart, would want to see her tweaking and doing other shit? Honestly, I will lose faith in this world if Selena transformed into this new type too….

First of all she is a child star therefore children look up to her. would we honestly want little girls to think it is ok to live, dress, and act like this? Women sit here and wonder why we are treated like objects, and thought of as lesser, or as just sex object meant for only the pleasure of men. The answer is right here in front of us. Yes she is no longer a child but she is insane to think that just because she is no longer a child actor she no longer has a responsibility to be a role motel. That is what comes with being a star and honestly all stars should take that into account. Goodie for you for being rich and famous whether talented or not as a star people look up to you and that is the bottom line. If Miley had a little girl do you think she would want her to see something like this? Yes we are all humans and we make mistakes but that excuse can only carry you so far. As someone who knows they are being watched all of the time you should know to at least try and act responsibly most of the time. If you cannot handle being tons of peoples role model then you need to get out of the spot light because there are enough problems with human kind as it is and you don’t need to add to it. Really people who act like this need to grow up and join the real world and stop telling yourself its ok to do these things because you “don’t care what people think about you”. That is honestly selfish when you have millions who look up to you. Plus you really just make yourself look bad, your fans look bad, your parents, and anyone who calls themselves your friend.

I don’t think it that she’s not great looking because its a fact that Miley Cyrus is gorgeous , but she’s just trying so hard and it’s just not working. It’s really nasty to be quiet honest. She doesn’t want to be Hannah Montana, understood. But why can’t she be dignified like Selena Gomez is my question.

People are taking this much too far. She is only getting so much crap about her performance because people are used to seeing the sweet eyed angel version of Miley as Hannah Montana. She is NOT Hannah Montana. Madonna, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera: All people that sexed up their images and did things that pushed boundaries and upset people. Get over it and back off her.

Her Performance looked like some kinda drug induced rant.. it was embarrassing to watch and by the looks of those in the audience they were also embarrassed.. she made herself look worst then a whore.. she made herself look stupid up there flashing gang signs and making rude sexual gestures.. if i was her father id disown her .

This is what happens when you get to a place where you are now not a child anymore but discover you are not that great looking, have no real singing talent and can’t dance worth a damn. You have to do something to get attention…sadly you should have picked another gimmick.Looking like a childish sl-t isn’t attractive.

Ok, so when i was kid i always used to watch Hannah Montana and listen to Miley Cyrus’ music. After seeing what I did last night i am appalled to say that i ever watched Hannah Montana. Little kids look , or should i say looked, up to her and she isn’t setting a good example . But the worst part of it was that after the performance , Miley’s mother stood up and clapped and acted like the worlds proudest mother. I’m not married and i don’t have children but if my mother watched me do the things that she did , my mother would disown me! I truly hope that no child who looked up to Mile Cyrus saw that last night. I am appalled and my opinions on Miley ail NEVER be the same

i love miley and we’re the same age all though i dont agree with the way she acts if u go to a club wat she was doing was mild sadly. I just dont like the fact every1 think they can bash her call her names and make false statements about her leave the woman alone.i believe she will grow out of this but until the pray 4 her

Miley has claimed in one way or another, so many times that the world hasn’t accepted the fact that she’s grown up; but for someone who wants so badly to show us how much of a big girl she is now, she sure has a very childish way of showing it.

Using my dads name because I cant change it lol, But im a 24 year old woman, I think She did nothing different from pass stars. Leave her alone let her have fun. Let her get it out and let her find her self and who she wants to be. She is not a Disney Star no more she is her own person that’s why people give her so much heat I think it was funny and she was having a good time Ugh.. Leave the poor girl live her life its not yours so why bother her.

I did not like it AT ALL! I can get shes trying to “find herself”, but come on! Shes probably been thinking like this as Hannah Montana too, so for a while. Shes probably like tying be different and remembered and talked about, but what creative about using a foam finger like a dick, and “twerking”. it was just horrible

She’s definitely talented, and I really loved the album she had when she broke away from disney, Can’t be Tamed. The songs had more meaning and were more on the rocker-side than we had seen her. Now I feel like shes trying to fit in with the rest of the crowd. I don’t like this side of Miley for performances. The song itself wasn’t the worst I’ve heard but she could do so much better.

I know Miley is talented. I’ve never been a fan of hers but I’ve always known she has a good voice. Her “backyard sessions” on youtube were GREAT. But.. the 2013 Miley Cyrus isn’t focused on singing real songs with her amazing voice. She’s not focused on making great music.. it seems like she’s more interested in making an impression.

I think its unfair, she wasnt anymore or less provacative then, Britney Spears, Christina Agulera, and Madonna use to be. I think she is getting more heat because she use to be all clean cut and stuff because of Hannah Montanna. She is still young and trying to find herself and I have a feeling this is only a phase and she will settle down eventually. Maybe she has to hit rock bottom before she realizes that she is taking the rebellion thing a little to far. But I am not going to hate on her or call her names because of her performance.

she went from a sweet girl as a disney to star, to this. my step daughter loved her show, and still loves to watch Miley. However I am not going to allow her to watch this. Too many kids follow her as a role model, and this is disgusting! She wasn’t home last night as we watched, and I laughed at her. Just ridiculous. I was excited to see the Nsync reunion though, just wishing it was longer! I miss them and it has been way over due.❤

Her actions last night were truly offensive, I am not quite sure what or why she chose to perform in such a manner. Its seems that she has taken it to a whole new level. And hello did she not realize her parents would be watching, not to speak of the teenage girls who adore her.

Now I am not a fan of Taylor Swift but I think Miley should take lessons on going from Teenage idol to being a grown up performer with some grace from Taylor Swift.

I didn’t find her performance to be that shocking in relation to past performances by other “talents”. I did however feel that her performance was just terrible. She sounded terrible, and her “dancing” looked amateur and just poorly planned. Honestly I think the thing that was the most awkward was the fact that her tongue was constantly hanging out of her mouth. Seriously?!?! Are you a panting dog or what Miley??

I believe her “I don’t care what people say” attitude works in both ways to get all eyes on her, and for her own success doing whatever-the-hell she wants!
You know how all the Pop Icons used to do the most excentric stuff which made them famous and talked. People won’t ever forget about them and that brings money, it’s true!
People grow and change, she is discovering herself and who she really is as a person and possibly one day, as an artist. Through all these years she has been only one more product from the media, now she’s growing up and “taking revenge” on all the people who put her on a pedestal.
She’s not a godess and she’s not perfect, and she wants us all to know that.

She went from a Disney star, a nice talented girl that younger girls looked up to. I understand that she’s moved on from that and is embracing her maturity and grown-up career now, but she is still out there, in public, for her old fans to see. What she did last night at the VMAs, which is supposed to be a happy music-loving show, is make a fool of herself by doing rude and obscene gestures. No one liked it and wanted to see that. The fact that they let her do that, on national TV nonetheless goes to show how society is changing, for the worse. No one liked that and it’s concerning if you did. Someone needs to give Miley a wakeup call because that is not okay.

I think life is one great big adventure and as all of us grow we learn by our mistakes. That being said I believe Miley is trying “to find” her adult self and while I think she does have talent, I also believe that this was a lesson learned, of how not to do things. I wish her the best.

I was in love with Miley and her new look,I wanted to be her…. Until last night… Now I’m not sure if I even like her anymore… Don’t get me wrong her music is great, but her approach on 2013 vma’s had almost scared me away… Way to go Miley. Thanks

It’s very simple: her performance just sucked. I actually like Miley Cyrus but she got up there like she’s never been onstage before and like someone pulled her out of the audience like, “hey you! come dance onstage”. She didn’t look like she’s been doing this all her life at all. It was sloppy and just whack. That’s my only issue with it.

i view it as, these pop stars are teaching kids how to be slutty and throw their sex appeal around like its nothing…with the access people have to media, i think we need to start holding not only our selves, but our “idols” to a higher standard. for the future of society sake.

– I respect her singing talent and music but her VMA performance was just garbage. She made herself look like a whore no offense to her . It was just plain horrible . If the past Miley Cyrus saw her future self , she would’ve been shocked and afraid .
